Dove Cameron Gets Real About Her Struggles With Mental Health

Dove Cameron is getting candid about her mental health.

The 23-year-old actress opened up about her experiences with anxiety, depression, and eating disorders in a new interview with ASOS magazine.

“I heard something when I was seven or eight about how we’re born alone and die alone,” she told the magazine. “That stuck with me, not as anything emotional, but something interesting. There’s nothing to lose. It helps you enjoy your life because you’re aware of how fleeting it is. When I say I am not the biggest fan of the industry, people get up in arms. I am grateful, I’m just not cut out to revel in it. It was hard to let people know I was grateful, but also deal with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, loss and tragedy and breakups in the spotlight.”

In the interview, Dove also revealed that she leans on friends, like Ariana Grande, when times get hard.
